The NASIG Program Planning Committee (PPC) invites ideas for topics and for
volunteer discussion facilitators for Informal Discussion Groups and User

in
Spokane, WA.



 The Program Planning Committee is looking for:



   - Topics for group discussion
   - Volunteers who would like to facilitate an Informal Discussion Group
   or a User Group (facilitators must be registered for the full in-person
   conference).



Informal Discussion Groups (formerly known as Networking Nodes) serve to
promote discussion among NASIG attendees who have a shared interest in a
topic, idea, workflow, or problem.   Areas of interest could include but
are not limited to: collection management, digital preservation, DEIA,
e-resources,  licensing, open access, scholarly communication and
supervision training. The emphasis of these sessions is open discussion and
the generation of new ideas.



User Group meetings and Informal Discussion Groups will take place
throughout the conference, which runs *June 3 – 7, 2024*.



 Please submit your suggestions or volunteer to lead a group
